8 years ago we became facebook friends,
Our awkwardness and words, with the times, to each other we lend.

With braces in your teeth and sadness to beat,
You cheered me up when I was at my disgraced seat.

7 years ago you got to know me,
And it became a big thing for me 'Salome’.

With gusto and rhythm you brought me joy,
None with a touch or sexual ploy.

6 years ago you made love,
I'll never understand why but I remember I thanked God above.

You were so quirky and your braces came off,
A lovely smile and an occasional cold and cough.

5 years ago we flourished,
Never in my life I had felt that cherished.

Making love on the regular,
I was satisfied and dissatisfied for the better.

6 years ago I got distracted,
By forces unforeseen and wisdom I lacked.

I'd never wish upon you a single misery,
But oh what a fool I was, to you, soon to be history.

5 years ago you knew all and grasped me tight,
Together forever-your motto and you played your role right.

I was confused and you kissed me,
I was scared and you kissed me.

4 years ago I cut you off,
To be with someone who begged a lot.

Forever I'll hate myself for I chose to ignore,
My cut, your pain and my greed for pleasure.

3 years ago we still hung out,
I came back to you and you took me before I could say 'wait’.

I should've been straight and come clean,
But I didn't want to stop your perfect dream.

2 years ago I was taken and toyed with,
Unaware of the vengeance i went into panic.

I started doing hard substances and saying things I never meant.
The pain was just setting in, you couldn't stop my slow-death.

1 year ago I saw you try,
To build me up from back inside.

All in vain, because I enjoyed the pain,
I loved repenting for I saw myself as a mere stain.

Now I'm breathing, better than ever,
Reminiscing about our journey together.

Cheering up for a world that's better,
Trying to not hang for I know I'm not an adulterer.

Today I would like to make clear,
Even though we don't talk as much to me you're very dear.

I still know not what you are to me,
I never did really.

But thank you for staying in my life,
Friend, foe, acquaintance or wife.
